Great catch of a rare sight! I often see our hummers perched on branches or the roof edge before refueling, but have never seen this!
I don't have a big backyard so I can quickly see if something is a little different. This little guy out in the open staying stationary on a fern was a bit unusual. Thanks for your comments and viewing.

I was fortunate that it was getting on to the golden hour when the "feeding" took place. Thanks for viewing and comments.

WOW, Was the first word to enter my mind, What an amazing unmissed opportunity to capture the life of nature at it's best. 🐣 A double blessing, the experience and chance to capture it in a such a grand way, & a subject matter that to me is unsurpassable!
I hope to be so lucky as to be this blessed somewhere in my near future. Great work!

Thank you very much for your kind comments. I'm fortunate that these little guys picked my backyard as their playground.

I saw this fledgling hummer land on a fern and stayed put (kind of unusual). Then another hummer briefly joined it and it was obvious that mom was still nursing this little guy. I thought I had missed the photo opportunity, but shortly thereafter the little guy flew back on the fern and I grabbed my camera. D500 80-400
Amazing capture! Very good!
